Or cost taxpayers more when the object is to create a more competitive environment that brings down taxpayer obligations.

The green energy thing hurts the city of Detroit and other cities with aging buildings that have more environmental issues that will be forced to come into compliance makes it more expensive to do projects there where it will be cheaper to demo old buildings and build new.

So it favors newer burbs or building out further,sprawl.

The forcing everybody to join the union- after saying union membership has been declining,does not address why membership has been declining,or doubling down on a problem.

Forcing companies to pay prevailing wage -union wages- For state/city government contracts removes to ability for competitive bidding,because fixed costs are fixed costs for everybody,the only way to be competitive is with the labor.

So it increased the cost to taxpayers.

Understandable that the state is a union state,but it is not the 1950s anymore and the reason union jobs are being lost in the first place,is because the jobs are gone.

So let’s double down on being a union state that has a dwindling employment base.

Let me establish a company in a state that has double the labor costs said no company ever.

What is the point of increasing pay rates while turning right around and implementing tax increases that offset the added wage increase benefit?

50% off grid by 2030? And replace it with what? Exercise equipment in the house that powers a generator?

That is what is strange about those in government in this country,they keep trying to go from one social experiment to another and when they fail it throws millions who can afford it the least under the bus and it dies not matter it takes them generations to even begin to recover.
